title: [Xenon and sevoflurane anti stress activity comparative assessment during elective anaesthesia in pediatric patients].
abstract: Research objective was to compare Xenon and Sevoflurane anti stress activities during elective anaesthesia in Pediatric patients.
  
  
  METHODS
  The results of anaesthesia in 42 patients in age from 1 to 18 years were analyzed. The clinical sings, BIS-index, Somatotropinum hormone and Cortisol levels in patient's blood were studied.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Xenon and Sevoflurane provide sufficient level of sedation, analgesia and do not cause Somatotropinum hormone and Cortisol levels increase.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Xenon and Sevoflurane have the same high anti stress activity However Xenon anaesthesia is characterized by more stable haemodynamics.
